Does the name begin with Tar-?

Pitchwife 07-05-2010 01:33 PM

BG, it rather looks like Nilp has completely forgotten about this thread, and I haven't seen him on the Downs for quite a while anyway, so I don't think it makes much sense to ask him any more questions about the last riddle. So if you'd like to take over, just think of something/somebody new, and we can start firing our questions at you, OK? (If in doubt how this works, just read the very first post on this thread.)

Blind Guardian 07-05-2010 02:04 PM

Okay. I have something. Start asking!
